EASTER SUNRISE SERVICE ON STONE MOUNTAIN

76th Annual Easter Celebration

STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. – ​ On Sunday, April, 12, Stone Mountain Park will be hosting its
76th Annual Easter Sunrise Service. Each year hundreds of guests take to the top of the mountain
on Easter morning to celebrate the holiday with a non-denominational service.

This will include a performance by special guest and gospel singer Lashun Pace.

“This was a beautiful way for my family to spend our Easter morning,” said Corey, a first-time
guest from last year's service.

The service will take place at the top of the mountain at 7 a.m. Another service will happen at the
base of the mountain for those who cannot make it to the top. Both services will feature sign
language interpreters for hearing impaired guests.

“Each year has been an exhilarating experience,” said Ashley, a yearly attendee of the event,
“Our family makes the walk to the top of the mountain every year for this event.”
Park gates open at 3 a.m. and the Summit Skyride will open at 4 a.m. to begin taking guests to
the top of the mountain. Early arrival is suggested due to large crowds.

Vehicle entry to the park is $20 for a one-day or $40 for an annual permit. Church vans and
buses enter free. Skyride fees are $15 for round-trip and $12 for one-way. There are no fees for
the walk-up trail to the top of the mountain.

Guests that are planning to stay the whole day can purchase an all-attractions pass and enjoy all
of the park's family-friendly attractions.

Media outlets have free access to parking and the Summit Skyride. At the top and base of the
mountain there will be sections for refreshments and setting up equipment.
